EXTRA 1.7: I, Once Again, Don’t Know What Topic Should I Choose.

After hearing the familiar nickname, Yan HeQing suddenly raised his head. His eyes were overflowing with disbelief.

Xiao YuAn pressed on Yan HeQing’s shoulder with one hand, as he stroked his chin with the other. Then he smiled and said: “Long love can be remembered forever1. My Yan-ge is so handsome, how could I…. Ah-”

Before Xiao YuAn could finish his words, his waist was suddenly grabbed as he was hugged by Yan HeQing. After Xiao YuAn’s vision got turned upside down, he was pressed into the soft quilt by Yan HeQing. As soon as Xiao YuAn regained his senses, he heard Yan HeQing whispering in his ear: “My father sold me to you? Male concubine?”

The warm breath next to his ear made Xiao YuAn’s back feel numb. President Xiao felt that he couldn’t lose his temper, so he decided to struggle: “Really! You were really sold to me! Although human trafficking is illegal in this world, the ‘essence’ is similar in nature!”

Since Xiao YuAn struggled so hard, the two men’s suits’ fabric rubbed against each other, producing a strange rustling sound. Yan HeQing hurried to grab Xiao YuAn’s wrist, pressing him down firmly without saying a word. Then he blocked Xiao YuAn’s chattering mouth with his own, kissing him until he couldn’t speak anymore.

Xiao YuAn was trying to adjust his breath, when he suddenly heard Yan HeQing whisper: “Is this your previous life?”

Seeing Xiao YuAn nodding his head, Yan HeQing hesitated for a long time before he could ask: “Did you feel uneasy after being reborn again?”

Xiao YuAn was stunned. As he looked at Yan HeQing, Xiao YuAn suddenly remembered something.

When he was transmigrated into the novel, he of course knew that world very well, but he still felt somewhat flustered. However, when Yan HeQing arrived in this modern world, he didn’t know nor understand anything surrounding him. The uneasiness Yan HeQing felt could be seen at first glance. What’s more, Xiao YuAn even pretended not to know him!

Xiao YuAn was suddenly filled with guilt. As he reached out his hands to hug Yan HeQing’s shoulders, he soothingly patted Yan HeQing, and then laughed: “Don’t worry, Yan-ge, I’m here.”

Yan HeQing ‘hmmed’, but the expression on his face hadn’t relaxed. Xiao YuAn then held Yan HeQing’s face tenderly as he kissed him. At that moment, he suddenly remembered what he wanted to say: “Come, let’s go take a bath. We just came back from the hospital, we have to wash up.”

The bathroom, which was adjacent to a room which used to have a 10m2 bed, would naturally not be inferior. With double-glazed doors, huge mirrors, a glass skylight that allowed them to see the stars at a single glance, and a bathtub filled with warm water. At this time, it was steaming already, and the skylight showed the blurring stars.

It was said that they would take a bath, but as soon as they entered the bathroom, the two of them kissed as they undressed themselves. By the time they got into the bathtub, they were almost naked.

Yan HeQing was still thinking about Xiao YuAn teasing him, so he kissed him fiercely in revenge, making Xiao YuAn’s tongue feel numb. Xiao YuAn then felt that Yan HeQing’s hand was going down that ‘place’. As Xiao YuAn gasped, he said: “Go, go, the bath, the water, the water.”

Before he could take off his white shirt, Xiao YuAn was soaked in the hot water, making his clothes wet and tightly attached to his body, outlining the contours of his body. Yan HeQing leaned Xiao YuAn against the edge of the bathtub, as he touched Xiao YuAn’s body with one finger.

Xiao YuAn tried to ignore the strangeness of being ‘expanded’ and ‘opened’ as he reached out to stroke Yan HeQing’s wet hair, which was glued to his forehead, and tucked it behind his ear. Then he laughed: “Yan-ge, your short hair looks so handsome.”

Yan HeQing tilted his head and kissed Xiao YuAn’s fingers, the ones which had gathered his hair. Then he heard Xiao YuAn say: “Yan-ge, you really don’t need to worry or feel uneasy. I’ll show you this world little by little. Didn’t you say that I know so much about you, but you don’t know much about me? Now I’ll tell you everything you wish to know, ah… Yan-ge, slow down, slow down…”

Yan HeQing looked at Xiao YuAn for an instant, and the uneasiness in his eyes had long been dispelled. Then, he whispered: “Alright.”

Xiao YuAn was dazed by Yan HeQing ‘thing’, so for a moment, he couldn’t hear Yan HeQing’s reply right. “Then you, you, you slow down a bit.” Xiao YuAn said with a trembling voice.

Yan HeQing gently raised the corners of his mouth, licked Xiao YuAn’s earlobe, and said faintly: “I was told that I owe you a debt, so I’m just paying it back.”

Xiao YuAn was shocked as he said: “How can you pay a debt like this?! Yan-ge, wait, Yan-ge. Don’t pay it back…. there’s no need to pay it back…. you, you, slow down ah!”

The next day, President Xiao, who had never been too late or too early, took a half-day off.

Early in the morning, when the East turned white and the air was slightly cool, Xiao YuAn habitually rolled to the left. Unlike before, when Xiao YuAn turned this time, he was able to touch someone else’s warmth. As he was still in a daze, that someone took him into his arms, pulling up the quilt for him.

By the time Xiao YuAn finally woke up, it was already morning. Yan HeQing was half-leaning against the bed with a book in his hands, slowly flipping through it. The first thing Xiao YuAn asked for was a ‘good morning kiss’. After that, he asked: “Can you read those words?”

Yan HeQing simply nodded his head.

“What about the content?”

At that, Yan HeQing shook his head. Seeing this, Xiao YuAn said: “It’s alright, there’s no rush. I’ll teach you after.”

“Alright.”

Then Xiao YuAn lazily leaned into Yan HeQing’s arms, picked up his cellphone, and dealt with some work matters. All of a sudden, he received a call from Hong Xiu: “Mr. Xiao, will you come to this afternoon’s meeting?”

“I’ll go. Um, I’ll go to the company to see the information. Alright. Yes, I know.”

When Xiao YuAn hung up the phone, he saw that Yan HeQing was looking at the phone in his hand incredulously.

Ever since arriving to a modern era, Xiao YuAn had often seen a different side of Yan HeQing. At this, President Xiao felt inexplicably overjoyed. As he sent a text to Butler Zhao, Xiao YuAn kissed Yan HeQing and said: “Wait, I’ll teach you how to use this. But let’s get up first.”

After washing up, Xiao YuAn found some loose clothes for Yan HeQing: “Yan-ge, you can wear my clothes for now. We’ll go buy clothes for you in the evening.”

“Mm-hmm.”

As soon as the two of them finished changing clothes, the door of the room was knocked on. When Xiao YuAn opened the door, Butler Zhao stood outside with a box containing a new phone: “Mr. Xiao, the phone card has already been placed. You can use it right away.”

Xiao YuAn thanked him and opened the box. After taking out the new phone, and adding his own number, he then grabbed Yan HeQing to teach him how to use it: “Yan-ge, look. With this we’ll be able to hear each other’s voice, even if we’re not together.”

Yan HeQing frowned: “You can only hear voices?”

Xiao YuAn was stunned at first, but then said: “No, you can also see me.”

Then Xiao YuAn clicked on the video call option and placed the phone in Yan HeQing’s hand. After quietly walking into the bathroom, wanting to give Yan HeQing a demonstration, he couldn’t have imagined that Yan HeQing would keep touching the screen, asking him where he was in a panic.

Xiao YuAn quickly opened the bathroom door and said: “Yan-ge, I’m here.”

Yan HeQing then took a few steps over. Only after touching Xiao YuAn’s cheek and hair did he relax.

Xiao YuAn hugged him helplessly and dotingly: “Forget it. You don’t have to use it if you don’t want to.”
